Guanchu (Gary) Wang
About me
I am currently working at Shanghai Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. I earned my Ph.D. in Computer Science from Rice University in 2025, under the guidance of Dr. Xia Hu and Dr. Vladimir Braverman.
My research focuses on foundation models and agents and their applications to healthcare.
